WeatherKit available to iOS users in China?
Does WeatherKit work for users in China? Some of our APIs to fetch weather data from other sources have been blocked in China, we are hoping WeatherKit will work as a replacement for them (we are using the Swift APIs to integrate with WeatherKit). Hopefully calling WeatherKit using the Swift APIs inside China from an iOS device will return data successfully and not fail. Thanks.

WeatherKit REST API production rate limiting
The documentation lists the number of calls per month you can make for the different pricing tiers here: https://developer.apple.com/weatherkit/get-started/ but are there going to be any per second/minute/hour rate limits on calls to the API like with other weather service APIs. For example maybe you get 1,000,000 calls per month but there is some limit like 5 calls per second or 10,000 calls per hour imposed by the APIs? Also what happens if you go over your allowed call limit for the month, will the API just return an error like HTTP 402 or you will get a warning for a period of time? Would you be able to buy extra calls for the month without having to upgrade to a new tier, assuming maybe you are experiencing a temporary increase in traffic.

Subscription in iOS subscription list showing productId not localized name
Hi - I have an auto-renew subscription, for some reason when the user looks at their subscriptions in the iOS subscription list the subscription shows the productId as the name e.g. com.company.app.subscriptonName not the localized string e.g. "Foo Monthly Subscription". I have other subscriptions and they all works as expected and show the localized name. The one that is showing the productId is configured the same as the others as far as I can tell, any reason why this is happening and how to fix it? Thanks.

Can't test subscription upgrade/downgrade. iOS doesn't use the sandbox account
Hi, I am trying to test my subscription upgrade/downgrade path on a device. I added a test user to the sandbox section of Settings - App Store and can purchase subscriptions using that test user no problem in my app. However, if I click on "Manage" on the sandbox user to see the list of subscriptions, when I try to upgrade/downgrade the purchase UI that iOS shows tries to use my actual personal account instead of the sandbox user, so I can't complete the transaction. Looks like a bug in the sandbox testing flow in iOS, but any way around it? Right now I just simulate updates from apple on my backend to make sure my app behaves as expected, but I would like to actually get some "real" data from Apple.
